Congrats. I remember the 100 mark well, it was only a few months ago. I'm
hoping to get to 1,000 before they switch to the new client but I'ts not
looking good, I have 3 machines crunching about 12 hours a day. Not
high-speed machines though.

If you give me your details(email and password) I'll chuck them into one
of my machines and I'll give you a hand.

Is this why home users need more than a few PCs?
DO you have shares in the power companies or something?
Is your power bill heaps?

It doesn't actually cost a hell of a lot to run a PC (as I'm sure you know).
It's mainly the monitor that eats the electrons. I guess that the average
PC, crunching SETI units without the monitor running, uses around 150 Watts
or so. (Guessing, as I said). Thats around 2 cents an hour.
